HIP Micro Normal Resistivity (HMNO)

This is the name of a log measured along a well bore (a well-log). You might have encountered this acronym HMNO in your log evaluation software or any (ASCII) log files provided by the logging company. The acronym stands for 'HIP Micro Normal Resistivity'. This log is very common in the industry.

The values of this log represent the micro Resistivity measurement using a "normal" electrode arrangement; traditionally combined with Micro Inverse Resistivity in a Microlog survey for identifying permeable beds.

Concluding, this is a measure of the measurement of the resistivity of the formation within the first few inches of the borehole wall.

This log usually has the unit 'Resistivity'. This is the property of a material which resists the flow of electrical current. The ratio of electric-field intensity to current density. The reciprocal of conductivity.

Data for this log is produced by a tool that uses a normal logging technique and can be used to investigate the resistivity of the formation. Similar logs are listed below:
